<\/p>\n

Good morning.<\/strong> I was moderating a discussion about AI and the American Dream at the Aspen Ideas Festival yesterday with executives from Edward Jones and Gallup when the Supreme Court released its decision affirming the 14th Amendment right of children born on U.S. soil to claim citizenship, regardless of their parents\u2019 status. Many of the leaders I\u2019ve spoken to see it as a win for business, as research published by the Center for Migration Studies estimates that beneficiaries will contribute $7.7 trillion to the U.S. economy over their lifetimes and $438 billion between 2025 and 2029 alone.<\/p>\n

\n

Had the Supreme Court upheld Trump\u2019s executive order, Penn State researchers estimate that 255,000 people born in the U.S. each year would be denied citizenship and the rights that it brings. (H-1B and L-1 visa holders would have been impacted, along with undocumented workers.)<\/p>\n

And how does that link back to the American Dream? Turns out U.S. immigrants are significantly more optimistic about the country and happier than the general population. And Gallup CEO Jon Clifton points out that a record 79% of U.S. adults now view immigration as a good thing for the country. With Gallup finding employee engagement and happiness at record lows, Clifton also notes that AI offers a much-needed opportunity to transform the workplace and work.<\/p>\n

One other point that I discussed with Clifton and Edward Jones CEO Penny Pennington is the importance of financial fulfillment. They teamed up on a study that found only 16% of Americans say their finances support the life they want. The research points to the importance of hope, optimism, and a feeling of financial stability in creating that sense of fulfillment. A lot of the pessimism and fear around AI is about what could<\/em> happen, not what\u2019s actually happening across the country. The people who could change that conversation are business leaders.<\/p>\n

Nike\u2019s nascent comeback<\/b><\/p>\n

Nike <\/span>reported<\/span> revenue of $10.97 billion for the most recent quarter, early evidence that CEO Elliott Hill’s push to rebuild wholesale relationships and refocus on athletes is working in North America. But investors are watching China, where revenue is still declining as local rival Anta gains ground and an inventory glut undercuts margins.<\/span><\/p>\n

Domestic airfare surge<\/b><\/p>\n

Domestic flight prices have <\/span>jumped<\/span> 23.2% since March 2025, outpacing the 11.5% rise in international fares, as airlines cut routes and lean into premium cabins to protect profits despite falling jet fuel costs. “As someone looking for air travel, you can expect prices to be high and stay high for the near term,” Cornell professor of services management Christopher Anderson told <\/span>Fortune<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anthropic\u2019s Washington woes<\/b><\/p>\n

The Trump administration and Anthropic last night reached a deal to restore access to the AI developer\u2019s Fable AI model after a weeks-long shutdown, but Anthropic\u2019s Washington headaches are far from over. <\/span>Fortune<\/span><\/i> AI editor Jeremy Kahn reports that the company\u2019s failure to play by the White House\u2019s rules <\/span>could cut it off<\/span> from government contracts and overseas markets right when it needs them most.<\/span><\/p>\n
